SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/05/12 -- Innotas, a leading provider of Cloud Solutions for IT Management, today announced that its Project Portfolio Management (PPM) and Application Portfolio Management (APM) solutions now offer integration with OneLogin, the innovator in identity management. This integration provides Innotas users with single sign-on (SSO) capabilities for its Innotas PPM and APM solutions, making it easier for users to access its software, while giving IT administrators a single point of control for managing users securely and efficiently across business tools.

"We are committed to delivering innovative and user-friendly solutions that help our customers to access, manage, and measure the work that their IT staff generates for their business," said Kevin Kern, President and CEO of Innotas. "OneLogin's SSO solution gives Innotas customers easy access to all of their applications, including our solution, CRM, ERP, agile development tools, email and much more, while delivering increased security."

OneLogin for Innotas is free for all of its customers and gives IT administrators a single point of control for managing users across various locations. With OneLogin, there is a reduction of time and costs to access the Innotas platform, and it eliminates the need for users to juggle multiple passwords and user names.

"We designed our Cloud ISV partner program to help our partners remove the challenge of integrating their cloud applications with on-premise directories like Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP," said Thomas Pedersen, chief executive officer of OneLogin. "Innotas is one of more than fifty vendors who have used our open source toolkits to SAML-enable their application."

Single sign-on (SSO) uses centralized authentication servers that all other applications and systems utilize for authentication purposes, and combines this with techniques to ensure that users do not have to manually enter their credentials more than once. SSO overcomes password fatigue where users tend to use the same username and password, not realizing that if one vendor is compromised, accounts on other systems are put at risk too. Additionally, having to type in user names and passwords over and over again can significantly reduce an employee's productivity. Benefits of SSO include:

Users can login in once and bypass the login process for all web applications that are configured for SSO

IT organizations can centralize access control to one location where password policies can be enforced and users can be disabled across all applications

Provides enhanced password security since user passwords are only exchanged between the web browser and the chosen Identity Provider (IdP)

Users don't have to remember multiple usernames and passwords: SSO ensures password authority for many applications
